Cowichan, Stoltz to RV Park...any obstructions?

[whitewater_cowboy]

Has anyone floated the lower Cowichan River, Stoltz to the Duncan RV Park? Has the recent high water resulted in any unpassable obstructions? Appreciate any info. Thanx!

I heard from a friend who lives on the river that there is indeed a couple of logs all the way across at the clay bank hole just below washout. That would be a horrible spot to hit a log!

This information is about a week old but its worth checking out before you drift.

Gooey.

I know its early but anybody hear of anything chrome coming into the flow?

 

[The Chosen one]

supposedly there was a couple fish the other day but i heard it through the grapevine so I dont know how much u can read into it. Haven't drifted it yet so i dont know about logs!!!!!

Correct my if I'm wrong I thought I read on DFO that it closed again on Nov. 30th ???

 

[whitewater_cowboy]

Thanx for the tips! I'll check with DFO on possible closures and plan to check it out (if open) next week. I'll post anything I find...fish or obstructions. Thanx again.

 

[Rum Buddies]

can anybody confirm that? it seems to weird to close it again after all this rain?

According to outfitters report, it's open for steel and trout as per usual regs -closed for salmon exept coho jacks.
